Back to School

Covington Latin School welcomed 206 students on campus this fall. They were enthusiastically greeted by faculty and staff with a tremendous amount of teaching experience and educational backgrounds that include Ph. D.s in education and science and Master’s degrees in their fields of studies from history to fine arts. As part of our commitment to the strategic plan, Covington Latin School has aligned our curriculum to emphasize a classical curriculum that will allow our students to enter the workforce with the critical thinking skills necessary for success. Our classical curriculum includes a strong foundation in liberal arts classes. Public speaking is now incorporated into all grade levels. Students in Prep and Form I years take speech through their history classes and then move into formal speech classes in Form II-IV years. Foreign language study is still a key component of our classical education. Students have the opportunity to take up to four years of Latin and Greek. Students also have the opportunity to take German and other languages such as Japanese, Spanish, and French.

One of the most significant additions to our school this year is our addition of a Learning Support Services program. Dr. Shannon Bosley has joined the team to help create a formalized plan to give our neurodiverse or twice-exceptional students the tools they need to succeed at CLS. Dr. Bosley is a parent of Lexi Bosley Knauer ‘14 and appreciates the importance of a Latin School education.
